$3.59/gallon = cheap?
28 April 2008So I’m in Las Vegas, where gas is ten cents cheaper than in Seattle. There’s at least one person saying that gas will eventually climb to $10/gallon, which has got to be the end of America’s automobile-centric lifestyle that Detroit has been selling us since World War II ended. Still Seattle Times wants to stall on a vote to extend light rail. Pathetic! What are we going to do when stingy suburban voters finally are able to stamp out urban sustainability? Sigh.
I’m going to use my economic stimulus check as a down payment on a condo in downtown Aberdeen, or something. Bremerton. Port Angeles, maybe.
Who am I kidding, I’m spending my money on ecco shoes and blood pressure medicine. And Sharpies, because I can’t find sharpies in Shanghai.
Express bus service, with dedicated HOV lanes don’t need rails!
I’m spending mine in France. (Take that, W!)
Hey JP
So BSG, hey? How about Hero’s or Lost? We got into Lost his year and are addicted. Of course maybe it’s just my obsessive personality. I’m also addicted to Spanish pod.
So, as teacher and professional in languages, you don’t think Rosetta Stone is worth the $450. I almost bought it, found Spanishpod just in the nick of time.
Enjoy your vacation
